Yeah, if you zoom in to the rescaled image you can definitely see the flaws where it has been 'rescaled', blurry areas and bits of 'detail' that make no geological sense, etc. You can spot what are essentially the 'brush strokes' of the AI or whatever software was used for the upscaling, even if it looks incredibly crisp at first glance.

Am I getting more aroused than I should be? Pray do extrapolate on the little contour highlighted, monsieur OP.

If you play Elite Dangerous you land on an infinite number of worlds, all looking like this. It's dull, but does impress me how close the landscapes look to this.
